Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The Modulor was Le Corbusier's human-scaled measurement system based on a six-foot man with arm raised—basically turning bodies into architectural units.
Piñuel treats the two photographs as found footage, extending Varda's own terrace documentary work while weaponizing Sharits's structuralist flicker against Corbusier's rigid order.
